Alexis Hall Inc.

Alexis Hall Inc. My Curated Move TM helps empty nesters sell their home and move to a place that fits their dreams. This gave me a great appreciation, and keen eye, for detail.

I have lived in the vibrant and emergent communities of Los Feliz, Silver Lake and Echo Park in Northeast Los Angeles for the last 33 years, and purchased my first home in 1993. Since then, renovating older houses has become my passion, resulting in firsthand experience working with architects, designers, contractors, landscapers and structural engineers. This knowledge, along with my familiarity

of daily life in our neighborhoods, has given me a fantastic source of understanding to tap into when helping you with all your real estate needs and wishes. Prior to becoming a Realtor®, I owned a successful art gallery in Chinatown, specializing in modern art, and launched numerous well-reviewed and ambitious shows. We published many in-house catalogues and artist editions, working with graphic designers, artists and writers. Running an art gallery, and being responsible for all the facets of business, has been wonderful preparation for success in real estate. Whether it’s finding you the right home, or representing your home in the sales process. I deliver timely response and communication, sophisticated research tools and marketing analysis, a strong work ethic, effective negotiating skills, and upbeat professional service. The drive, diligence and dedication that I share with my clients are the key to a successful real estate experience! Your interests are my highest priority. Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage prides itself on being the #1 company in Southern California, and the nation. My clients have access to the best research and marketing expertise, and unsurpassed qualitative business practices. I look forward to helping you achieve the results you desire in this very dynamic real estate market!

You’re dreaming about Paris — but the house needs another repair. Again.

You chose this home carefully.
Great schools. Safe streets. Close to work and school.
It fit your family. It fit your life.

But things have changed.
No more carpools.
No commute to the office.
Just a house that feels bigger… and already quieter.

Your baby is choosing where to go for college.
You picture the home echoing without their laughter.

Meanwhile, the bills keep growing:
Property taxes alone could send her on a semester abroad — every single year.

And the renovation? Just three years old… and somehow, it already needs work.
The roof leaks. The gate sags.

Your home eats up your time and drains your savings.
You’re house-rich and cash-poor.
You know something has to give.

Maybe you’re not ready to decide yet.
Maybe you’re just waiting.
That’s okay.
You don’t need a plan yet — just an open mind about what could come next.

It’s going to be okay.

You’ve always been the one who plans.
Who protects.
Who takes care of everyone.

What if this home — the one you’ve poured so much into — could finally pay you back and unlock your next, stress-free chapter?

You picture France:
Wandering flea markets.
A warm crêpe — cheese and sea salt — shared on a street corner.
Getting your hair cut on the street by a madman — still the most memorable haircut you’ve ever had.

You walk all day, until your feet ache.
You stop at a café and take a bistro table on the sidewalk.
She pulls out her watercolors and paints the moment.
Then she runs off to meet her friends.

You stay — fully present. Thrilled and grateful for this opportunity.

💭 You imagine flying to her if she ever feels homesick.
No spreadsheets. No guilt.
Just being the parent she’ll always need.

✨ You don’t have to decide anything today.
But if you’re starting to wonder what comes next,

✅ DM me and I’ll send you a simple, no-pressure guide to start thinking about your next chapter.

Late-night scrolling.An apartment in Paris.
You’re just looking.

Because you still love your home—the memories, the way the light falls in the kitchen.

But then you picture a different kind of morning—coffee with ocean air, warm sand under your feet,
hair salty from a sunrise swim.

You think, What if I could keep what I love… and add this?

This isn’t about moving tomorrow.
It’s about letting yourself imagine the version of you who trades pruning hedges for watching the tide roll in.

Here’s the thing:The life you picture at 11:47 PM isn’t random.
It’s your future knocking.

You don’t have to answer yet.
But you can open the door a little.See if it’s possible.
Save this for the night you realize curiosity isn’t going away—because that’s when we’ll find out what’s possible for you.

What if smaller isn’t a step down?

You’re not unhappy here.This home has been so good to you.
It’s where you raised your kids, celebrated holidays, built a life you love.
Memories seep into the walls — like your dad’s old sweater you can’t throw away, or the baby shoes you’ve kept for decades.

But lately… you’ve caught yourself wondering.
If less space might actually give you more.
More charm.
More ease.
More breathing room.

Smaller could mean a vintage bathroom with perfect tile.
An outdoor dining table surrounded by jasmine.
Lower bills.
Less upkeep.
More time for what matters now.

It’s not about losing what you love.
It’s about editing down to the best parts and writing a new manifesto:This is what I believe in.This is what matters now.Here’s what makes the cut — and here’s what I want no more of.
And yes, it’s still hard to say goodbye.But when you move toward something that excites you, it stops feeling like loss and starts feeling like the life you’ve been quietly designing all along.

DM me “smaller” and I’ll show you how Phase One of The Curated Move™ turns daydreams into a next chapter that fits perfectly.

📀 Your Whole World Is Leaving. Now What?

She hasn't even left yet… and already I notice it.

The quiet that's coming.

The empty chair. The laughter fading from the house.

My whole world has centered around her. So what happens when she leaves?

What will my life look like when she's off building hers?

I've started to look at my choices.

I'm cheering her on — telling her to be bold, brave, soak it all up — while learning to show up for myself too.

Old friends. New routines. New projects. Making space in my life — not just in my home, but also in my heart.

Because when she calls from college, I want her to hear it in my voice — that I'm proud of her, and I'm really okay.

That's what matters now: the sound of my voice when she calls. I want her to hear strength there. Joy there. So she can fly without looking back — knowing I'm still here, cheering for her, living my own life too.

And just like I made space in my heart and my routines, I started thinking about my space itself. What kind of home fits this part of me — the one with more room to grow, fewer rooms to clean, and new adventures waiting?

Maybe traveling to Transylvania. Writing a novel. Picking up my art again.

Do you want to stay in a home that is perfect for your past but not your future?

Anything is possible.

That's why I guide other parents through this too — My Curated Move™ helps you move from the home where you raised your kids to the one that feels right for what's next.

Because it's not just about selling a house. It's about finding the place where your voice is strong, your joy returns, and your next adventure begins.

Write "GUIDE" in the comments and I'll send you my guide for turning this transition into your best chapter yet.

Think staging is a waste of money?

Most sellers do—until the offers start rolling in. And then they thank me.

You probably know this feeling—you're walking through your home wondering if buyers will judge your 2010 Pottery Barn sectional with stains from sticky fingers. (They will)

In Step 2 of my Curated Move™, we focus on preparing your home for the market.

We're not just decorating—we're telling a story. Your home holds years of memories. But buyers need to see their future here—not just your past.

That's why we explore staging. Not because it looks pretty— but because it's the easiest way to paint dreams.

We highlight your home's best features. We lean into what makes it feel special.

And we create a feeling that quietly says: "This is the one."

Staging helps buyers imagine bedtime stories in a magical children's room. Or curling up in a cozy reading nook. It helps them picture marshmallows around the fire pit. And summer barbeques with corn on the grill.

✨ Staged homes sell for up to 15% more

⏱️ They sell 73% faster

👀 83% of buyers say staging helps them picture living there

Yes, it's your home—but once it's on the market, we're selling a dream.

Staging isn't erasing your life. It's whispering to buyers: "This is where your best moments happen."

And when three families fall in love? That's when staging becomes sales magic— and your dreams for the future finally begin to come true.

💬 DM me "STAGING" and I'll send you my favorite tricks for making buyers fall in love fast.

THIS FEELS SO WRONG

We’re told a story about empty nesting:
That it’s nothing but heartbreak, loneliness, and tissues.

That good parents should feel devastated when their children leave.

But here’s what no one says:
You can feel heartbreak and happiness… at the same time.

Last week, over dinner, my friend Pam admitted it to me.

"When my son left for college across the country, I thought I’d cry for weeks," she said.

"And I did cry — a little — but alongside missing him, I felt this… giddy excitement I didn’t expect."

Pam loves her son more than anything.

She raised him alone for 18 years.

But when he flew away, she discovered something surprising:
Freedom.

"The first thing I did was redecorate the living room exactly the way I wanted — no compromises.

No sticky fingerprints to worry about.

I started art classes on Tuesday nights, traveled on a whim, and sometimes ate dinner at 9 PM — just because I felt like it."

She laughed and called her new life “a bowl of cherries — and now I get to pick the very best ones for myself.”

Parenting is an extraordinary season of life — but it’s not the only season.

When we frame empty nesting only as loss, we miss the possibility of what comes next.

You’re allowed to feel relief alongside the sadness.

To enjoy the quiet house, the clean bathroom, and the freedom to make plans without checking everyone else’s schedules.

That doesn’t make you a bad parent.

It might mean you did it right — because you raised someone who can thrive without you… and now it’s your turn to thrive too.

So let me ask:
What would it look like if you gave yourself permission to enjoy this chapter?

If you’ve felt this quiet joy — or you’re just starting to — I’d love to hear your story.

If I go missing, remember the axe.

I know I'm annoying. But not Lifetime movie annoying.

Packing the truck was chaos. Not between me and Eloise. We work well together.

But we test my boyfriend's patience.

This time, some clips went missing. It was my fault. He threw everything out of the truck. Everything. We were both mad. Eloise just watched her show.

Then we got on the road. About 30 minutes in, Zac Bryan came on. We all started singing and all anger was gone.

You know that feeling when the right song fixes everything?

It takes me back. Dad driving steady. Windows down.Wind whipping his hair.

Mom's red toes on the dash. Her voice singing along to whatever played.

She could have been a real singer. If she weren’t our mom.

I'd put my hand out the window. Let it dance in the wind.

Country roads with my family. John Denver singing about going to the place he belongs.

Now the freeway is ugly. I can't put my hand out.

I've been in LA for 35 years, but it never felt like home.

It's Eloise's home though. Where she goes, I'll follow.

This time with Eloise is a gift. Always has been.

When we climb the mountain to Big Bear, I start to breathe deep. The trees appear.

My body remembers what peace feels like.

We're not done yet. We'll keep packing the truck. Bad moods and all.

Unless he uses that axe.

What trips start messy but end up meaning everything?

📀 What Lucinda & Prince Know about Parenthood

Eloise is looking at colleges now.

I tell her to dream big — to live a brave, fun, joyful life.

I don't want her to lose the parts of herself I love — her creative spark, her sharp mind, the way she sees things I can't.

I don't want her to dim her light. I want her to shine.

When I hear "I Would Die For You," I think of her — because I would.

But after giving everything to raising her, I feel… lost.

Maybe you do too?

Maybe you feel sad. Hopeless.

Like your baby leaving will break you — even though you want the best for them.

You worry your bond will never be the same.

You probably think you're going to feel like this forever.

Like "Nothing Compares 2 U":

"I can eat my dinner in a fancy place to eat

But nothing… I said nothing can take away these blues 'Cause nothing compares, nothing compares to you."

I used to love going places — but now?

There's nowhere I want to go… without her.

I feel like I'm done.

Like all the good stuff is over. She's been my why.

Maybe you've felt it too — the quiet house, the empty feeling, the question: What now?

Lucinda sings: "You stole my joy, I want it back."

But my daughter didn't steal it.

She is my joy.

It's the loss that's stealing it.

And I don't know yet how to get it back.

But I know I have to try.

Then I remember: I have one wild and precious life too.

As much as I dread her leaving… if she doesn’t, I'll nudge her out!.

Because her job is to step into her future.

I have one job here: work through this.

So she can go off without a second thought — knowing I’m not just okay, but doing great.

What parts of me fell away while being a mom? What dreams dimmed?

Would it be crazy to believe I can find them again?

In the quiet?

Even if more years are behind than ahead.

Even though aging is hard.

It's still your gorgeous life to live.

No one else will make it brave and fun but you.

I started treating myself the way I treat her — with love and kindness.

Asking: how can I not just survive this… but actually thrive?

Eloise will always be my sun.

But there are other planets too.

And they don't make her shine any less.

What about you? What are you doing to face the thought — or truth — of an empty nest? 💭

What's your theme song for this time?
